About Dr. Tess DeProw

Hello, my name is Dr. Tess DeProw. I have a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Missouri. I have helped many people struggling with depression, drug addiction, relationship breakups, childhood trauma, parenting issues and anxiety. I will work with you to help you identify what your personal strengths are and together we will develop a plan to improve the quality of your life. I used several different therapeutic approaches: cognitive-behavioral therapy, strength-based therapy, motivational interviewing and narrative therapy. All of the tools I use are designed to empower you and help you see that you do have choices as to how we handle the situations that we are faced with. Sometimes the fear of change is scarier than the change itself. My personal counseling style is warm, empathetic, encouraging and empowering.

“Dr. Tess is the perfect therapist for us. She is an expert not only in relationships but also in addition and how that affects relationships. She was patient, insightful, and seemed to have a wonderful way of framing and explaining things in ways we could understand and apply. We cannot recommend Dr.Tess more highly. ”

“Dr. DeProw is not only knowledgeable and patient, she is personable and so easy to talk to. She seems to understand everything we are going through and has invaluable insight that is easy to understand. I really also enjoy the quotes she sends and exercises we do between sessions. This has been the best couples therapy experience possible. Would highly recommend.”
